AP debts Rs 9.64 lakh crore, CM Babu only saviour: Jayaprakash Narayana 

Party founder Jayaprakash Narayana expressed his support for TDP Chief Chandrababu Naidu, claiming that Naidu is the only leader capable of reversing the severe financial crisis in Andhra Pradesh. Speaking on the state’s precarious economic situation, Narayana said, “Andhra Pradesh is burdened with a staggering debt of Rs. 9.64 lakh crore, with nearly half of its revenue going towards interest payments alone. No other state in the country carries such a financial load.” Narayana criticized the previous government, accusing it of neglecting economic development and focusing only on “pushing buttons” for handout schemes without strengthening the State’s wealth. “The last five years have seen the State suffer severely, with basic infrastructure like roads deteriorating.

The previous administration’s approach has plunged Andhra Pradesh into this crisis,” he stated. Narayana emphasized that the people of Andhra Pradesh have a renewed sense of hope in Naidu’s leadership, believing he can steer the state back to economic health. He also stressed the importance of developing Amaravati as the state’s capital, calling it essential for a prosperous future. “Chandrababu Naidu has the proven ability and experience to bring about this change,” Narayana said.
